Very true Ian , ALL have there good and bad points.
It really is too bad that arrangers as a whole seem to get a bum rap.
They are great to play , now as for me , still waiting.
Waiting for what , you may ask !
You might know the answer to that far better than I my friend

At least we can agree that the new "whatever" from Yamaha will not have built in speakers.
It will not have a HD
Nor will it be the same `ol / same `ol .
Maybe a hybrid between a synth and arranger ?
It will have Extended SA voicing.
Am I getting warm ?
Will it be March or October ?
